Leadership Training Free workshops in parade skills are open to leaders of school or community groups preparing entries for Parade the Circle on June 9, 2018. Workshops begin in March at the parade studio.

Follow required parade guidelines. Groups are not required to follow the theme, but may find it helpful.

Attend leadership training workshops, if interested (one or two persons per organization per session). These free workshops, held in March and April, are strongly recommended for groups new to parade participation. Attend movement session in June.

Optional consultation with Robin VanLear, Director, Parade the Circle. Recommended for new groups. Special consultations at leadership training.

Register by Sunday, May 20, 2018, to be listed in the printed program. Forms available in May. Register by Tuesday, June 5, for parade wristbands and privileges. All registration fees include parade entry.

We set parade fees as low as we can and ask each group to pay a small portion. If these rates present a hardship to your group, please call as soon as possible before you begin work to discuss special arrangements.

Send one representative to the required group leader meeting on Tuesday, June 5 at 7:00 p.m.

The workshop space is also available for you to work on your own at other scheduled times.

Minimum charge per organization: $275 (for 4 participants); $70 each additional person. This fee covers participants working in basic workshops and includes parade registration. The purchase of stilts for stilt-dancing workshops is an additional fee.

Basic parade materials are included in the fee.
